He wasn't much when you arrived.
What a violinist he's become!

00:03:25,952 --> 00:03:27,715
A little something for him.
42
00:03:27,787 --> 00:03:29,755

Xiaochun, at least you understand how
life works.
50
00:04:00,153 --> 00:04:02,451

Fortunate Mr: Debao had an 8 lb: 8 oz: boy:
55
00:05:07,954 --> 00:05:09,387
Nice shot!
56
00:05:58,672 --> 00:06:02,608
-Taking much cash with you?
-Guess.
57
00:06:03,810 --> 00:06:05,107
1,500?
58
00:06:06,479 --> 00:06:07,571
2,000?
59
00:06:07,647 --> 00:06:09,877
No, guess again.

61
00:06:13,019 --> 00:06:14,782
l'll leave you guessing.
62
00:06:38,712 --> 00:06:41,374
Chun, it's urgent.
63
00:06:41,448 --> 00:06:43,882
l need a toilet, and fast.
64
00:06:43,950 --> 00:06:47,351

Watch it. My hair!
68
00:07:38,538 --> 00:07:40,369
Fix it nice.
69
00:07:52,318 --> 00:07:54,946
Kid, grab the suitcase.
70
00:08:05,565 --> 00:08:07,192
l'll give you a receipt.
71
00:09:02,522 --> 00:09:03,887
-Who called for help?
-l did.
72
00:09:03,957 --> 00:09:05,288
What's the problem?
73
00:09:05,358 --> 00:09:06,825
l've lost my child.
74
00:09:06,893 --> 00:09:09,293
-When was this?
-Just now.
75
00:09:09,362 --> 00:09:11,193
He was right here 10 minutes ago.
76
00:09:11,264 --> 00:09:12,891
l had diarrhea....
77
00:09:12,966 --> 00:09:14,695
Let me explain.
78
00:09:14,767 --> 00:09:17,292
He began the violin at age 3.
79
00:09:17,370 --> 00:09:21,363
Since age 5, he's won a local prize
every year.
80
00:09:21,441 --> 00:09:23,341
What a catastrophe.
81
00:09:23,409 --> 00:09:25,343
-Age?
-13.
82
00:09:25,411 --> 00:09:27,311
-Boy or girl?
-Boy.
83
00:09:29,649 --> 00:09:34,382
Chun, where on earth were you?
lt's your turn.

00:11:16,856 --> 00:11:18,346
Director Chang!
88
00:11:18,658 --> 00:11:20,819
Mr. Chang, meet Liu Xiaochun.
89
00:11:21,394 --> 00:11:22,554
Good work.
90
00:11:23,463 --> 00:11:25,727
You play very well.
91
00:11:25,798 --> 00:11:28,926
lf your school accepts him...
92
00:11:29,002 --> 00:11:33,029
we can stay here and try to bring you honor.
93
00:11:33,106 --> 00:11:37,975
Unfortunately, you need a Beijing
residence permit to stay.
94
00:11:38,044 --> 00:11:40,376
l can't help you.
95
00:11:40,513 --> 00:11:45,576
However, if a private teacher takes him,
we won't object.
96
00:11:51,391 --> 00:11:54,053
Jiang, how did you like the competition?
97
00:11:54,527 --> 00:11:57,587
Your music exam's always the same.
98
00:11:57,663 --> 00:11:59,927
What do you mean our exam?
99
00:11:59,999 --> 00:12:02,433
You're on staff here, too.
100
00:12:02,502 --> 00:12:05,232
How much did the winner pay to win?
101
00:12:07,073 --> 00:12:10,565
We accept targeted contributions
to offset costs.
102
00:12:10,643 --> 00:12:13,840
ls it wrong to express gratitude?
103
00:12:13,913 --> 00:12:16,575
No favoritism, no sponsors.
104
00:12:16,649 --> 00:12:19,117
The good player finished where?
105
00:12:19,185 --> 00:12:21,449
You mean number five?
106
00:12:21,521 --> 00:12:25,252
You remain perceptive as ever.
107
00:12:49,615 --> 00:12:51,583
Professor Jiang.
108
00:12:51,918 --> 00:12:54,148
Oh, Professor!
109
00:12:56,689 --> 00:13:00,648
My name is Liu Cheng.
l'm number five's father.
110
00:13:01,627 --> 00:13:03,254
Number five? So?
111
00:13:03,729 --> 00:13:05,424
What's the big deal?
112
00:13:06,899 --> 00:13:08,526
Wow, l'm bowled over.
113
00:13:22,048 --> 00:13:23,606
He's home.
114
00:13:24,383 --> 00:13:26,180
Professor.
115
00:13:26,252 --> 00:13:28,846
This is your teacher. Say hello.
116
00:13:28,921 --> 00:13:30,445
Go on!
117
00:13:31,591 --> 00:13:34,583
l entrust him to you.
118
00:13:34,660 --> 00:13:36,127
Let me do that.
119
00:13:36,295 --> 00:13:39,787
Will lessons be once or twice a week?
120
00:13:39,999 --> 00:13:42,832
Be strict. Strict is fine by me.
121
00:13:42,902 --> 00:13:46,303
lt's best for the child, to be strict.
122
00:13:46,472 --> 00:13:48,372
Beijing folks are sharp.
123
00:13:48,441 --> 00:13:51,308
But my son is their match.
124
00:13:51,377 --> 00:13:53,504
Smart and adroit.
125
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,916
Every year a prize, like clockwork.
126
00:13:57,984 --> 00:14:00,452
Back home, nobody's heard of Liu Cheng...
127
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:05,048
but everybody knows Xiaochun's father.
128
00:14:05,124 --> 00:14:07,354
This is a real opportunity for you.
129
00:14:07,426 --> 00:14:11,920
l'm telling you straight.
Understand that Xiaochun--
130
00:14:11,998 --> 00:14:14,432
Fine. l get the picture.
131
00:14:15,668 --> 00:14:18,262
Explore a bit of Beijing together.
132
00:14:18,337 --> 00:14:20,805
See the Forbidden City and go home.
133
00:14:20,873 --> 00:14:22,636
Are you kidding?
134
00:14:24,677 --> 00:14:26,440
He finished fifth, didn't he?
135
00:14:27,580 --> 00:14:29,605
l'll level with you.
136
00:14:29,682 --> 00:14:33,209
He should have been first.
137
00:14:35,688 --> 00:14:37,019
You get it?
138
00:14:38,424 --> 00:14:41,723
Even if he plays great, he won't succeed.
139
00:14:43,462 --> 00:14:44,622
Do you understand?
140
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:51,762
Mr. Jiang, your words just make me want
to stay even more.
141
00:14:55,641 --> 00:14:57,871
The truth is...
142
00:14:58,077 --> 00:15:00,068
he was a baby when his mother left.
143
00:15:00,146 --> 00:15:01,909
Her violin remained.
144
00:15:01,981 --> 00:15:05,610
He began to play it because he missed her.
145
00:15:05,685 --> 00:15:09,086
Whenever he thinks of her,
he plays the violin.
146
00:15:09,155 --> 00:15:11,453
l don't want anything to hurt him.
147
00:15:11,524 --> 00:15:14,186
Chun!
148
00:15:31,344 --> 00:15:33,642
lt's 1 1 :00. You can come in.
149
00:15:49,128 --> 00:15:50,993
Tell me.
150
00:15:51,797 --> 00:15:56,461
20 yuan buys a bath and a bunk.
151
00:15:56,535 --> 00:15:58,059
ls that right?
152
00:15:59,705 --> 00:16:02,071
That's right. Why?
153
00:16:03,843 --> 00:16:05,401
You're sure?
154
00:16:24,930 --> 00:16:27,490
Chun, a bath and a bed for 20 yuan...
155
00:16:27,566 --> 00:16:28,828
is quite a deal.
156
00:16:29,001 --> 00:16:31,026
A bath with the room.
157
00:16:31,737 --> 00:16:32,726
You asleep?
158
00:17:03,569 --> 00:17:04,968
Ready?
159
00:17:05,271 --> 00:17:06,533
Begin.
160
00:17:21,620 --> 00:17:22,848
Stop.
161
00:17:24,423 --> 00:17:27,119
Zhang Lifa, listen to yourself.
162
00:17:27,226 --> 00:17:30,684
You haven't played a single note on key.
Not one.
163
00:17:31,097 --> 00:17:32,291
Really?
164
00:17:32,898 --> 00:17:33,922
Yes. Really.
165
00:17:35,167 --> 00:17:36,896
Now start over.
166
00:17:42,108 --> 00:17:43,200
Hello?
167
00:17:44,477 --> 00:17:47,105
That you?
168
00:17:47,980 --> 00:17:50,346
l'm at the kid's violin lesson.
169
00:17:50,416 --> 00:17:52,748
That's right, it's culture.
170
00:17:52,818 --> 00:17:54,479
Mean anything to you?
171
00:17:54,553 --> 00:17:56,282
What's the problem?
172
00:17:56,689 --> 00:17:57,678
What?
173
00:17:57,757 --> 00:18:02,194
You under his thumb?
He demands, and you deliver!
174
00:18:02,261 --> 00:18:05,890
lf he said to jump in the lake, would you?
175
00:18:06,599 --> 00:18:11,059
l owe him money? That's a laugh.
176
00:18:11,137 --> 00:18:12,434
He has no proof.
177
00:18:12,505 --> 00:18:13,995
Press charges?
178
00:18:17,309 --> 00:18:19,368
l didn't say stop.
179
00:18:19,445 --> 00:18:22,778
l'll sue right back. For slander.
180
00:18:22,848 --> 00:18:26,841
l didn't sign an lOU.
181
00:18:27,353 --> 00:18:30,618
You listen good. lf you give him one cent...
182
00:18:30,689 --> 00:18:32,418
you'll feel my wrath.
183
00:18:49,442 --> 00:18:52,206
Come on, honey,
let's not stay another minute.
184
00:18:52,278 --> 00:18:53,438
Goodbye.
185
00:18:56,515 --> 00:18:58,676
Get this straight.
186
00:18:58,751 --> 00:19:02,187
We're dumping you, and not vice versa.
187
00:19:02,254 --> 00:19:03,380
Come along!
188
00:19:04,690 --> 00:19:06,021
Come back.
189
00:19:06,625 --> 00:19:08,388
Don't forget your bow.
190
00:19:15,568 --> 00:19:18,366
Teachers are a dime a dozen.
191
00:19:18,437 --> 00:19:21,201
Thanks for letting me quit.
192
00:19:27,580 --> 00:19:29,172
You, at the door!
193
00:19:29,548 --> 00:19:32,745
Come in. Stop lurking like a thief.
194
00:19:32,918 --> 00:19:34,510
Yes, sir, Professor.
195
00:19:37,723 --> 00:19:39,816
Come here, boy.
196
00:19:40,493 --> 00:19:42,984
Would you remove that red hat?
197
00:19:43,062 --> 00:19:44,290
lt makes me uneasy.
198
00:19:48,567 --> 00:19:49,898
The thing is....
199
00:19:53,539 --> 00:19:55,598
l must be incompetent.
200
00:19:56,008 --> 00:20:00,342
Not at all! You're a good teacher.
201
00:20:01,714 --> 00:20:05,343
Oh, yeah? Then why did she fire me?
202
00:20:05,417 --> 00:20:06,406
We....
203
00:20:07,953 --> 00:20:10,217
We would like to hire you.
204
00:20:46,292 --> 00:20:51,059
Liu Xiaochun, before we start,
some ground rules.
205
00:20:51,130 --> 00:20:55,123
First, you'll have to work hard.
206
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,430
Otherwise, it's pointless.
207
00:20:57,836 --> 00:21:00,964
Second, you must enjoy playing.
208
00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:05,773
Refrain from playing unless you enjoy it.
209
00:21:05,844 --> 00:21:09,712
And finally, don't play only
when you think of your mother.
210
00:21:11,116 --> 00:21:12,413
That's it.
211
00:21:15,287 --> 00:21:16,811
Play something.
212
00:21:27,967 --> 00:21:28,956
Who is it?
213
00:21:29,301 --> 00:21:31,861
Hello, is this Mr. Cheng?
214
00:21:32,071 --> 00:21:35,063
Cut it out, i know it's you:
215
00:21:35,441 --> 00:21:38,239
l miss you already. Now what?
216
00:21:38,310 --> 00:21:40,301
i miss you, too:
217
00:21:40,546 --> 00:21:43,447
Oh, yeah. Then why leave me?
218
00:21:43,515 --> 00:21:47,849
Do you give other women such nice shoes?
219
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,150
What other women?
220
00:21:50,456 --> 00:21:51,923
Do you love me?
221
00:21:52,291 --> 00:21:53,883
Not this again!
222
00:21:53,959 --> 00:21:55,085
Yes or no?
223
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,027
You're always asking!You must love me a lot:
224
00:21:58,097 --> 00:21:59,462
ls that a yes or a no?
225
00:21:59,531 --> 00:22:01,089
i love you:
226
00:22:02,868 --> 00:22:05,598
-i love you, babe:
-You know l'm up here.
227
00:22:05,671 --> 00:22:09,801
You can't outfox a sly old fox:
228
00:22:09,875 --> 00:22:11,843
-i've got to go:
-Clown!
229
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,976
That guy your uncle?
230
00:22:18,050 --> 00:22:19,608
He needs directions:
231
00:22:20,285 --> 00:22:22,515
Did you find it okay?
232
00:22:22,588 --> 00:22:24,146
Yes.
233
00:22:25,357 --> 00:22:26,415
Here in Beijing...
234
00:22:26,492 --> 00:22:29,893
it's easier to find a bride than housing.
235
00:22:29,962 --> 00:22:31,896
You're lucky indeed.
236
00:22:32,598 --> 00:22:34,964
Come in.
237
00:22:57,423 --> 00:22:59,789
Hey! Violin-boy!
238
00:23:00,325 --> 00:23:01,417
Here!
239
00:23:02,194 --> 00:23:03,422
Up here!
240
00:23:05,431 --> 00:23:06,523
You mean me?
241
00:23:06,665 --> 00:23:09,156
Yes, you. Come on up!
242
00:23:10,402 --> 00:23:11,460
8547 1 .
243
00:23:12,371 --> 00:23:15,465
Where do you wander by starlight?
244
00:23:15,541 --> 00:23:17,065
Where do you wander?
245
00:23:17,643 --> 00:23:18,905
That's right.
246
00:23:19,745 --> 00:23:22,475
When you've got a sec, call me.
247
00:23:23,415 --> 00:23:26,612
He knows my number. Sign it Mimi.
248
00:23:28,220 --> 00:23:33,522
Hello?
Tell him l've moved to a new apartment.
249
00:23:33,592 --> 00:23:37,084
The number is 62 87 54 53.
250
00:23:37,996 --> 00:23:40,226
Sign it ''Your babe.''
251
00:23:41,967 --> 00:23:43,457
How old are you?
252
00:23:43,535 --> 00:23:44,934
l'm 13.
253
00:23:45,003 --> 00:23:46,903
You're not bad on that violin.
254
00:23:47,172 --> 00:23:48,901
Play me something.
255
00:23:49,108 --> 00:23:50,905
Lonely Makes Me Lovely.
256
00:23:52,611 --> 00:23:54,169
Don't know it?
257
00:23:54,279 --> 00:23:56,372
The Moon Reflects My Heart.
258
00:23:56,982 --> 00:23:58,074
Play.
259
00:24:03,555 --> 00:24:08,686
Hi, Fanny. l've moved.
260
00:24:08,761 --> 00:24:10,888
l'm still unpacking.
261
00:24:10,963 --> 00:24:12,760
The old apartment was fine.
262
00:24:12,831 --> 00:24:15,629
But Mr. X ran out of cash.
263
00:24:15,968 --> 00:24:18,163
What are you up to?
264
00:24:18,437 --> 00:24:20,462
You still with that guy?
265
00:24:21,740 --> 00:24:25,232
New topic.
What's-his-name isn't bad looking.
266
00:24:26,345 --> 00:24:27,778
ls he rich?
267
00:24:29,548 --> 00:24:30,674
No kidding?
268
00:24:31,483 --> 00:24:32,973
Millions?
269
00:24:35,120 --> 00:24:36,883
l'm his type?
270
00:24:36,955 --> 00:24:38,786
Gotta see if l like him.
271
00:24:38,857 --> 00:24:42,554
He says that to all the girls.
272
00:24:42,628 --> 00:24:44,323
Give me his number.
273
00:24:44,396 --> 00:24:46,057
What is it?
274
00:24:47,299 --> 00:24:49,529
l may not even call him.
275
00:24:56,575 --> 00:24:59,305
Hello? Mr. Han?
276
00:24:59,411 --> 00:25:01,606
lt's me, Lili.
277
00:25:04,283 --> 00:25:06,410
Why are you such a bad boy?
278
00:25:07,252 --> 00:25:10,312
Wait, l'll go to another room.
279
00:25:16,228 --> 00:25:17,786
l'm all ears.
280
00:25:30,576 --> 00:25:32,271
Stupid boy!
281
00:25:40,819 --> 00:25:43,481
Was it you at the station?
282
00:25:43,555 --> 00:25:46,115
l didn't recognize you.
What brings you here?
283
00:25:46,191 --> 00:25:48,591
l live right over there.
284
00:25:48,927 --> 00:25:50,485
See you around!
285
00:26:02,741 --> 00:26:04,766
You're really something.
286
00:26:04,843 --> 00:26:06,606
You test my patience.
287
00:26:06,678 --> 00:26:08,771
-l what?
-You pile your coal here...
288
00:26:08,847 --> 00:26:10,337
without concern for me.
289
00:26:10,415 --> 00:26:13,145
We all share this courtyard. Get it?
290
00:26:13,218 --> 00:26:14,617
Delivery guy's choice.
291
00:26:14,686 --> 00:26:16,153
Don't fish for excuses.
292
00:26:16,221 --> 00:26:18,280
-Don't be silly!
-You dare hit me?
293
00:26:18,357 --> 00:26:19,449
Watch it!
294
00:26:19,524 --> 00:26:20,821
What?
295
00:26:20,893 --> 00:26:22,758
Same routine every year.
296
00:26:22,828 --> 00:26:25,388
You blame the delivery guy.
297
00:26:25,464 --> 00:26:29,195
You encourage him just to spite me!
298
00:26:29,268 --> 00:26:30,758
lf you take that tone...
299
00:26:30,836 --> 00:26:35,739
it's unlikely l'll move it. lt's fine where it is.
300
00:26:35,807 --> 00:26:38,799
-Will you move it away?
-Nope!
301
00:26:39,912 --> 00:26:40,901
No?
302
00:26:41,146 --> 00:26:42,204
No.
303
00:26:45,350 --> 00:26:48,842
Fine. ln that case, it's all mine.
304
00:26:49,054 --> 00:26:50,351
Say that again?
305
00:26:52,057 --> 00:26:54,582
l'll be nice and warm this winter.
306
00:26:54,660 --> 00:26:57,026
Just try it, you'll see!
307
00:26:57,095 --> 00:26:59,222
l'll help myself.
308
00:26:59,298 --> 00:27:01,198
Put that back!
309
00:27:01,633 --> 00:27:04,534
Kid, what do you think you're doing?
310
00:27:04,603 --> 00:27:05,900
ls over here okay?
311
00:27:05,971 --> 00:27:08,235
Yes. Thank you.
312
00:27:08,373 --> 00:27:09,738
What's your game?
313
00:27:10,676 --> 00:27:12,405
Helpful, aren't we?
314
00:27:13,445 --> 00:27:16,505
You're aiding the enemy!
315
00:27:18,750 --> 00:27:20,877
Some teacher you are!
316
00:27:25,357 --> 00:27:26,949
Wash your hands.
317
00:27:30,329 --> 00:27:32,354
Use soap.
318
00:27:39,671 --> 00:27:41,536
Hold it.
319
00:27:41,606 --> 00:27:45,633
l'm overwhelmed here. Come help me.
320
00:27:48,780 --> 00:27:50,179
Give me a hand.
321
00:27:54,353 --> 00:27:58,187
He followed a lady cat and got beaten up.
322
00:27:59,057 --> 00:28:00,217
Stop!
323
00:28:01,026 --> 00:28:03,358
Get the medicine on the shelf.
324
00:28:07,032 --> 00:28:10,468
You don't know how. l'll do it.
325
00:28:14,206 --> 00:28:15,298
Close it up.
326
00:28:17,509 --> 00:28:20,034
Mix the milk with water.
327
00:28:22,347 --> 00:28:25,282
The kittens are hungry, too.
328
00:28:27,319 --> 00:28:30,584
Careful when you feed Mimi.
329
00:28:30,655 --> 00:28:32,384
Remove the bones.
330
00:28:32,457 --> 00:28:35,085
Watch it, clumsy.
331
00:28:36,261 --> 00:28:37,626
He has bad teeth.
332
00:28:40,165 --> 00:28:42,497
Less salt in his.
333
00:28:42,667 --> 00:28:44,157
Kidney problems, too.
334
00:28:45,203 --> 00:28:49,230
Stay there. Don't be such a klutz.
335
00:29:08,593 --> 00:29:11,619
Go on. Play.
336
00:29:19,538 --> 00:29:22,473
What smells so awful?
337
00:29:26,445 --> 00:29:29,073
Did kitty pee under the bed again?
338
00:29:29,147 --> 00:29:30,910
Did you do that?
339
00:29:32,784 --> 00:29:34,615
l'll do it.
340
00:29:39,758 --> 00:29:42,386
See if you find a sock.
341
00:29:42,461 --> 00:29:43,689
A black one.
342
00:29:46,665 --> 00:29:48,132
No sock here.
343
00:29:53,772 --> 00:29:55,330
Just this photo.
344
00:29:56,108 --> 00:29:57,268
That's odd.
345
00:30:07,119 --> 00:30:10,577
Okay, back to work.
346
00:30:13,492 --> 00:30:16,222
Hey! Where are you going?
347
00:30:17,762 --> 00:30:20,322
My father pays you for violin lessons.
348
00:30:20,665 --> 00:30:24,032
Liu Xiaochun.
349
00:30:25,170 --> 00:30:28,662
-How much for 1 lb. of rice?
-1 .6 yuan.
350
00:30:28,874 --> 00:30:30,501
How much is your rice?
351
00:30:30,709 --> 00:30:33,678
-What did he quote you?
-1 .5 yuan.
352
00:30:33,845 --> 00:30:35,870
l'll give it to you for 1 .3.
353
00:30:35,947 --> 00:30:38,347
How about 1 yuan even?
354
00:30:38,950 --> 00:30:42,010
l'll make it 0.9. Deal?
355
00:30:42,154 --> 00:30:44,486
Stealing my client?
356
00:30:44,556 --> 00:30:46,888
What of it? l do as l please!
357
00:30:46,958 --> 00:30:51,918
Bastard! l'll trash your stand!
358
00:30:55,867 --> 00:30:57,562
Here's a solution.
359
00:30:57,636 --> 00:31:02,630
l propose this. l'll buy 5 lbs. from each.
360
00:31:02,707 --> 00:31:05,335
You stay out of this.
361
00:31:05,410 --> 00:31:07,037
lt's between him and me.
362
00:31:30,702 --> 00:31:32,192
No, that's not mine.
363
00:31:32,270 --> 00:31:33,760
My hat!
364
00:31:36,541 --> 00:31:37,599
Chun.
365
00:31:39,177 --> 00:31:41,611
l screwed up.
366
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:44,345
l lost my cap.
367
00:31:46,318 --> 00:31:47,307
Good.
368
00:31:48,253 --> 00:31:50,380
Why good?
369
00:31:50,455 --> 00:31:52,389
l won't have to look at it.
370
00:31:52,457 --> 00:31:56,291
But the money! My money was inside.
371
00:31:57,896 --> 00:31:59,727
Here, Dad.
372
00:32:00,832 --> 00:32:04,563
-Where'd you get that?
-l earned it.
373
00:32:06,037 --> 00:32:07,095
Take it.
374
00:32:10,842 --> 00:32:13,936
Lower your head. Admit your mistake!
375
00:32:30,528 --> 00:32:32,393
Hi there.
376
00:32:34,299 --> 00:32:37,928
Come play tonight. lt's my friend's birthday.
377
00:32:51,783 --> 00:32:54,616
Go get the sheet music.
378
00:33:05,096 --> 00:33:06,495
Liu Xiaochun.
379
00:33:07,399 --> 00:33:10,630
Today you'll rejuvenate sheet music.
380
00:33:14,739 --> 00:33:17,071
You know what that means?
381
00:33:19,678 --> 00:33:24,240
-Rejuvenating means--
-To wipe off the dust.
382
00:33:31,523 --> 00:33:33,616
See the pencil marks?
383
00:33:34,826 --> 00:33:36,293
She wrote them in.
384
00:33:37,529 --> 00:33:40,362
We were classmates at the Conservatory.
385
00:33:43,234 --> 00:33:47,637
We often copied scores together.
386
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:51,167
When l was with her...
387
00:33:51,242 --> 00:33:52,971
l felt pretty good.
388
00:33:54,579 --> 00:33:55,910
Do you like her notes?
389
00:33:57,982 --> 00:34:00,678
Shortly before graduation...
390
00:34:01,019 --> 00:34:02,850
she told me...
391
00:34:03,355 --> 00:34:06,483
another guy wanted to date her...
392
00:34:06,991 --> 00:34:08,720
and asked my advice.
393
00:34:08,793 --> 00:34:11,762
l said, ''Sounds good.''
394
00:34:11,830 --> 00:34:15,789
The classmate in question
was a real go-getter.
395
00:34:15,867 --> 00:34:17,630
That's a good trait, no?
396
00:34:19,371 --> 00:34:20,770
Later on...
397
00:34:21,973 --> 00:34:25,033
l realized she loved me.
398
00:34:25,110 --> 00:34:26,702
l was such a dope!
399
00:34:29,914 --> 00:34:31,905
l liked her.
400
00:34:33,985 --> 00:34:36,818
Anyway, that was that.
401
00:34:38,490 --> 00:34:42,426
She married the other guy...
402
00:34:43,595 --> 00:34:45,187
and left me here.
403
00:34:47,198 --> 00:34:50,725
l hear she's divorced.
404
00:34:51,269 --> 00:34:53,203
Never saw her again.
405
00:34:53,738 --> 00:34:55,763
The piece you played the other day...
406
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,741
was our graduation farewell.
407
00:35:01,246 --> 00:35:04,306
l'm telling all this to a kid.
408
00:35:06,284 --> 00:35:07,979
That's a laugh.
409
00:35:08,052 --> 00:35:09,679
Professor Jiang.
410
00:35:10,488 --> 00:35:12,922
You never married?
411
00:35:13,892 --> 00:35:16,053
Who would have me?
412
00:35:16,461 --> 00:35:19,555
Plus, if l bring a woman here...
413
00:35:19,631 --> 00:35:23,089
my cats will have to go.
414
00:35:36,147 --> 00:35:37,944
l have my music...
415
00:35:41,219 --> 00:35:43,380
to warm my heart.
416
00:36:02,507 --> 00:36:07,240
Chef, you don't put tomato sauce on
fish-basted pork strips.
417
00:36:07,745 --> 00:36:10,737
You want some pork strips?
418
00:36:11,616 --> 00:36:13,379
l'm not here to eat.
419
00:36:13,551 --> 00:36:16,918
l'm a cook. The temp agency sent me.
420
00:36:16,988 --> 00:36:18,580
That's the boss.
421
00:36:18,656 --> 00:36:21,022
You're the boss?
422
00:36:29,067 --> 00:36:32,298
Can you ride a bike?
423
00:36:48,987 --> 00:36:49,976
That's hot.
424
00:38:00,458 --> 00:38:01,550
Here.
425
00:38:04,462 --> 00:38:06,555
Put that down...
426
00:38:06,764 --> 00:38:09,392
and feel the music in your heart.
427
00:38:18,376 --> 00:38:20,173
What have we here?
428
00:38:20,244 --> 00:38:22,007
Wait a minute.
429
00:38:29,220 --> 00:38:32,485
The other day, you said....
430
00:38:32,557 --> 00:38:37,460
Why, you little sneak.
431
00:38:38,062 --> 00:38:40,792
Making fun of me, eh?
432
00:38:41,532 --> 00:38:44,092
This is such a filthy sock.
433
00:38:44,168 --> 00:38:46,363
What do you say...
434
00:38:46,437 --> 00:38:48,496
we leave it there?
435
00:39:07,291 --> 00:39:09,851
Give me a hand. l'm way behind.
436
00:39:09,927 --> 00:39:11,155
Find the hair dryer.
437
00:39:13,895 --> 00:39:14,884
Hurry up!
438
00:39:17,933 --> 00:39:18,991
lt's not here.
439
00:39:19,534 --> 00:39:20,899
Look over there.
440
00:39:33,815 --> 00:39:36,409
No, my feet. Do my toes.
441
00:39:54,069 --> 00:39:55,696
What do you know?
442
00:40:00,041 --> 00:40:02,168
That's my least favorite.
443
00:40:02,243 --> 00:40:07,613
Sit down. And no peeking.
444
00:40:37,846 --> 00:40:40,110
l put on the one you picked.
445
00:40:48,957 --> 00:40:50,925
Guess what this is.
446
00:40:52,127 --> 00:40:53,992
A birthday cake.
447
00:40:54,162 --> 00:40:55,789
What's written on it?
448
00:40:57,065 --> 00:40:58,692
Happy birthday?
449
00:40:58,767 --> 00:41:00,132
Wrong!
450
00:41:00,969 --> 00:41:04,837
He was born at 8:05 p.m. Original, huh?
451
00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:38,603
The cell phone you've reached isunavailable at this time:
452
00:41:44,946 --> 00:41:46,106
Forget it.
453
00:43:04,292 --> 00:43:06,226
Play. l'm listening.
454
00:43:13,201 --> 00:43:15,101
What's your name?
455
00:43:15,170 --> 00:43:16,899
Liu Xiaochun.
456
00:43:18,673 --> 00:43:19,833
l'm Lili.
457
00:43:29,150 --> 00:43:33,883
Two little honeybees gather pollen
in the breeze....
458
00:43:46,534 --> 00:43:47,899
Dad!
459
00:43:47,969 --> 00:43:49,596
Who's that woman?
460
00:43:51,039 --> 00:43:53,030
A friend.
461
00:44:14,562 --> 00:44:17,895
Not so fast, comrade.
462
00:44:21,002 --> 00:44:23,334
Miss, you're mistaken.
463
00:44:23,404 --> 00:44:25,804
You a burglar? l may be female...
464
00:44:25,873 --> 00:44:28,364
but l'm not helpless. What do you want?
465
00:44:29,978 --> 00:44:31,946
How shall l put it?
466
00:44:32,013 --> 00:44:33,537
Let's have it.
467
00:44:34,916 --> 00:44:38,181
l'll tell you the whole story.
468
00:44:38,987 --> 00:44:42,514
Somehow, the other day
my son made 50 yuan.
469
00:44:42,657 --> 00:44:48,118
Yesterday, the woman in there
left lipstick on his cheek.
470
00:44:49,430 --> 00:44:54,390
l heard a violin being played
in this apartment.
471
00:44:56,571 --> 00:44:58,402
You're Xiaochun's father?
472
00:44:59,474 --> 00:45:02,170
l'm the one who gave him the money.
473
00:45:02,243 --> 00:45:05,644
l live here. The lipstick traces were mine.
474
00:45:06,014 --> 00:45:07,106
You object?
475
00:45:08,616 --> 00:45:10,379
Xiaochun reporting!
476
00:45:10,451 --> 00:45:14,547
l found two sweaters
in a basin under the bed.
477
00:45:14,622 --> 00:45:15,782
They're disgusting.
478
00:45:15,857 --> 00:45:19,987
All moth-eaten and faded.
479
00:45:20,061 --> 00:45:23,360
Why did you cage them up?
480
00:45:23,431 --> 00:45:26,594
You fascist.
481
00:45:33,341 --> 00:45:35,070
Easy.
482
00:45:36,110 --> 00:45:38,977
You put dirty clothes on the piano...
483
00:45:39,047 --> 00:45:42,244
of all places!
484
00:45:43,951 --> 00:45:47,011
Your father pays me to teach you the violin.
485
00:45:47,088 --> 00:45:50,251
Not to clean or do my household chores.
486
00:45:52,260 --> 00:45:55,024
Go on. Play.
487
00:45:56,164 --> 00:45:57,358
l'm unhappy.
488
00:45:58,833 --> 00:46:01,825
Therefore, l can't play. You said so yourself.
489
00:46:15,550 --> 00:46:17,450
Why are you unhappy?
490
00:46:19,020 --> 00:46:22,183
You rearrange all my stuff.
491
00:46:22,256 --> 00:46:23,848
l can't find a thing.
492
00:46:23,925 --> 00:46:26,985
l've barely objected so far,
but you're unhappy.
493
00:46:27,829 --> 00:46:30,093
l don't like playing in a pigsty.
494
00:46:31,099 --> 00:46:33,829
You never change your clothes.
495
00:46:34,335 --> 00:46:36,326
You live to pick fights.
496
00:46:37,305 --> 00:46:40,866
You smell worse than your house pets.
497
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,111
They're not ''house pets.''
498
00:46:51,285 --> 00:46:56,154
l rescued all my cats from the street.
499
00:46:56,224 --> 00:47:00,160
Without me, they'd have starved
or frozen to death.
500
00:47:01,329 --> 00:47:04,787
Liu Xiaochun, you're not so special.
501
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,300
Why, you....
502
00:47:07,368 --> 00:47:09,268
You're just...
503
00:47:09,337 --> 00:47:12,864
a stray cat l took in. You know that?
504
00:47:12,940 --> 00:47:16,501
A cat who happens to play a violin. Big deal.
505
00:47:16,577 --> 00:47:18,374
You're nothing exceptional.
506
00:47:20,515 --> 00:47:23,313
And you say l smell like my animals.
507
00:47:26,921 --> 00:47:29,481
Stop tapping. Sit up straight.
508
00:47:29,791 --> 00:47:31,520
You never admit your mistakes.
509
00:47:32,960 --> 00:47:34,951
lf you'd been less proud...
510
00:47:35,029 --> 00:47:38,965
your classmate wouldn't have
married your rival.
511
00:47:44,505 --> 00:47:45,836
Get out.
512
00:47:50,878 --> 00:47:52,140
You hear me?
513
00:47:54,081 --> 00:47:56,879
That's right, clear out!
514
00:47:56,951 --> 00:47:59,215
lf you leave now, you needn't return.
515
00:48:08,095 --> 00:48:11,189
Chun, where you going?
516
00:48:11,332 --> 00:48:12,526
Back home.
517
00:48:13,034 --> 00:48:15,434
Why the long face?
518
00:48:15,636 --> 00:48:18,537
Let's go out. My treat.
519
00:48:18,606 --> 00:48:22,303
Your dad came by.
l thought he was a burglar.
520
00:48:22,910 --> 00:48:24,775
l pulled this out.
521
00:48:25,046 --> 00:48:28,072
He was so scared, he almost passed out.
522
00:48:28,483 --> 00:48:31,418
l could use it for self-defense.
523
00:48:31,486 --> 00:48:33,215
The curse of a pretty face.
524
00:48:33,287 --> 00:48:35,915
All Beijing knows it's a cigarette lighter.
525
00:48:35,990 --> 00:48:39,289
Your dad's a country bumpkin.
526
00:48:39,360 --> 00:48:42,022
His red hat screamed ''peasant.''
527
00:48:42,096 --> 00:48:44,826
He hid his money in it...
528
00:48:44,899 --> 00:48:49,563
and got himself robbed.
Great strategy, huh?
529
00:48:49,637 --> 00:48:52,231
Big sister, are you very rich?
530
00:48:52,406 --> 00:48:56,342
l work hard for my dough
and blow it on clothes.
531
00:48:56,410 --> 00:48:59,038
You never mention your mother.
532
00:49:00,147 --> 00:49:02,411
She left when l was two.
533
00:49:03,251 --> 00:49:05,082
She left me this violin.
534
00:49:06,053 --> 00:49:08,214
No wonder you play so well.
535
00:49:08,289 --> 00:49:10,484
So your dad raised you.
536
00:49:12,994 --> 00:49:16,452
Must have been hard. The peasant did okay.
537
00:49:16,531 --> 00:49:18,829
Am l too ''peasant''?
538
00:49:19,133 --> 00:49:22,102
No, you're cool.
539
00:49:22,703 --> 00:49:23,761
Over here.
540
00:49:25,406 --> 00:49:27,135
l'm beat.
541
00:49:27,341 --> 00:49:30,606
Coffee now. We'll eat later.
542
00:49:33,381 --> 00:49:36,214
What will it be? lce cream?
543
00:49:36,317 --> 00:49:38,649
What are you staring at?
544
00:49:46,661 --> 00:49:48,458
How about pastry?
545
00:50:04,011 --> 00:50:06,445
That's your phone.
546
00:50:10,585 --> 00:50:13,577
-Be right back.
-Answer it here.
547
00:50:14,221 --> 00:50:16,655
Don't mind me.
548
00:50:21,562 --> 00:50:22,586
Who's calling?
549
00:50:22,663 --> 00:50:23,687
Hello?
550
00:50:23,764 --> 00:50:24,992
Hello there.
551
00:50:25,066 --> 00:50:27,000
What's with ''hello there''?
552
00:50:27,068 --> 00:50:28,467
Where are you?
553
00:50:28,536 --> 00:50:29,935
l'm talking business.
554
00:50:30,004 --> 00:50:31,699
Who with?
555
00:50:34,141 --> 00:50:37,406
A promising contact.
556
00:50:39,847 --> 00:50:42,816
Male or female?
557
00:50:43,150 --> 00:50:44,879
Like me.
558
00:50:45,019 --> 00:50:47,146
Say you love me.
559
00:50:50,591 --> 00:50:52,957
Say it in Chinese.
560
00:50:53,027 --> 00:50:55,154
Yes, that's right.
561
00:50:55,229 --> 00:50:56,594
Hello?
562
00:51:02,570 --> 00:51:04,834
l can't hear you.
563
00:51:04,905 --> 00:51:06,395
Dad!
564
00:51:06,540 --> 00:51:08,098
Darling.
565
00:51:08,175 --> 00:51:11,611
So, you're talking business?
566
00:51:13,114 --> 00:51:15,344
Nice female client.
567
00:51:17,885 --> 00:51:20,285
Ever so attractive.
568
00:51:20,955 --> 00:51:23,583
Pricey jewelry she's got there.
569
00:51:26,060 --> 00:51:29,757
She's the one you hope will cough up
some money.
570
00:51:29,830 --> 00:51:31,525
Sit!
571
00:51:33,134 --> 00:51:35,625
Keep chatting.
572
00:51:35,703 --> 00:51:38,831
Honey, l'll go home and start dinner.
573
00:51:53,020 --> 00:51:54,851
You still here?
574
00:51:54,922 --> 00:51:57,482
All men are jerks! Get lost.
575
00:52:22,249 --> 00:52:23,978
Goodbye. Come again.
576
00:52:27,688 --> 00:52:28,848
Come on.
577
00:52:37,665 --> 00:52:38,962
Straight ahead.
578
00:52:58,219 --> 00:53:01,188
Excuse me, is this the way in?
579
00:54:04,985 --> 00:54:06,509
Thank you all:
580
00:54:06,921 --> 00:54:11,324
i'd like to introduce my esteemed teacher:
581
00:54:11,392 --> 00:54:13,383
i am here thanks to him:
582
00:54:13,460 --> 00:54:17,328
i owe him everything: Professor Yu Shifeng:
583
00:54:48,996 --> 00:54:52,056
How many big-ticket concerts in 1 2 months?
584
00:54:53,701 --> 00:54:56,465
Sure, they applaud.
585
00:54:56,737 --> 00:54:58,466
The welcome is warm.
586
00:54:59,673 --> 00:55:01,800
But it's not for your playing.
587
00:55:01,876 --> 00:55:04,674
lt's for your reputation.
588
00:55:06,714 --> 00:55:10,946
And now l'm part of your show, too.
589
00:55:13,454 --> 00:55:14,716
You're a big boy now.
590
00:55:16,624 --> 00:55:18,990
l can't scold you anymore.
591
00:55:21,428 --> 00:55:23,692
Or give you a good kick.
592
00:55:28,202 --> 00:55:29,999
Where will it all lead?
593
00:55:35,476 --> 00:55:38,172
l sense the danger in too much, too soon.
594
00:55:39,280 --> 00:55:42,443
To truly succeed as a musician....
595
00:55:45,019 --> 00:55:48,011
Forget it. l'll shut up.
596
00:55:48,255 --> 00:55:50,951
l've said too much already.
597
00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:56,127
Let's not keep the press waiting.
598
00:56:08,876 --> 00:56:10,343
Go ahead.
599
00:56:15,115 --> 00:56:18,209
Your dad wants me to teach you violin--
600
00:56:18,285 --> 00:56:19,547
He paid you to.
601
00:56:22,756 --> 00:56:23,916
How rude!
602
00:56:25,793 --> 00:56:27,226
You're a very rude boy.
603
00:56:29,330 --> 00:56:31,457
Liu Cheng.
604
00:56:31,532 --> 00:56:33,500
Professor Jiang.
605
00:56:33,567 --> 00:56:36,001
ls class over?
606
00:56:37,237 --> 00:56:39,899
What's all this?
607
00:56:39,974 --> 00:56:41,999
Chun offended you, didn't he?
608
00:56:42,109 --> 00:56:44,475
lt's a token gesture.
609
00:56:44,745 --> 00:56:46,178
Chun.
610
00:56:48,115 --> 00:56:51,983
Go down the street and buy us a bottle.
611
00:56:52,052 --> 00:56:56,512
lf we finish this one, that's a start.
612
00:56:56,590 --> 00:56:58,114
Have a seat!
613
00:57:01,962 --> 00:57:05,796
How good a musician is Chun?
614
00:57:06,567 --> 00:57:07,795
He's not bad.
615
00:57:09,136 --> 00:57:13,004
Does he have a future or not?
616
00:57:13,073 --> 00:57:15,041
That depends.
617
00:57:15,109 --> 00:57:17,577
Do you seek fame and fortune...
618
00:57:17,644 --> 00:57:19,373
or consummate musicianship?
619
00:57:20,681 --> 00:57:22,114
Fame and fortune.
620
00:57:25,619 --> 00:57:27,018
l can't guarantee it.
621
00:57:31,158 --> 00:57:34,059
ln that case, we quit.
622
00:57:34,128 --> 00:57:35,755
Suit yourself.
623
00:57:41,468 --> 00:57:43,163
Professor Jiang...
624
00:57:43,470 --> 00:57:45,631
you're very understanding.
625
00:57:45,706 --> 00:57:48,140
-How so?
-You're a fine man.
626
00:57:48,475 --> 00:57:52,036
l was afraid you'd be insulted.
627
00:57:52,379 --> 00:57:55,314
Your open mind disarms me.
628
00:57:56,316 --> 00:57:59,308
True, such a trifling matter couldn't affect--
629
00:58:00,054 --> 00:58:01,783
What are you insinuating?
630
00:58:02,623 --> 00:58:04,887
Come clean. What's this about?
631
00:58:06,427 --> 00:58:08,258
Are you firing me?
632
00:58:11,298 --> 00:58:14,563
Liu Cheng, you're a regular bastard.
633
00:58:15,269 --> 00:58:18,363
You set out to trick me, didn't you?
634
00:58:19,473 --> 00:58:21,236
Drop this nonsense.
635
00:58:24,344 --> 00:58:25,675
ls this about money?
636
00:58:28,282 --> 00:58:31,877
l don't want money. Not anymore.
637
00:58:35,155 --> 00:58:37,282
ln that case...
638
00:58:43,464 --> 00:58:44,863
Professor Jiang...
639
00:58:44,932 --> 00:58:48,959
l'll tell you the truth.
640
00:58:50,471 --> 00:58:52,063
l want Xiaochun...
641
00:58:53,807 --> 00:58:55,570
to change teachers.
642
00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:15,057
Out of my sight!
643
00:59:20,033 --> 00:59:22,001
Sulk all you want.
644
00:59:22,736 --> 00:59:26,536
But it's settled. You're changing teachers.
645
00:59:52,332 --> 00:59:53,697
Uh, Mister....
646
00:59:53,767 --> 00:59:55,098
-Professor Yu!
-Who?
647
00:59:55,169 --> 00:59:57,194
Professor Yu!
648
00:59:57,271 --> 00:59:58,704
What is it?
649
00:59:58,772 --> 01:00:00,637
Hello, Professor.
650
01:00:00,874 --> 01:00:04,207
-Ever hear of a doorbell?
-What bell?
651
01:00:04,444 --> 01:00:10,405
Professor, l was at Mr. Tang Rong's recital.
652
01:00:10,951 --> 01:00:12,680
Do you remember me?
653
01:00:13,987 --> 01:00:17,445
-You have company?
-No.
654
01:00:17,524 --> 01:00:20,084
That's my pupil l'm teaching.
655
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:22,890
Please forgive my intrusion.
656
01:00:22,963 --> 01:00:27,627
But l have something vital to tell you.
657
01:00:27,935 --> 01:00:30,028
May l see you alone?
658
01:00:30,504 --> 01:00:34,133
Of course, Mrs. Yu may stay.
659
01:00:34,208 --> 01:00:36,335
Okay, l'm all ears.
660
01:00:40,681 --> 01:00:42,581
l wish to tell you...
661
01:00:42,649 --> 01:00:45,345
about a violin prodigy.
662
01:00:46,386 --> 01:00:47,580
This genius...
663
01:00:49,856 --> 01:00:51,721
is my son.
664
01:00:52,492 --> 01:00:57,293
A strange path led him to the violin.
665
01:00:57,364 --> 01:00:59,332
So, your son's a genius?
666
01:01:03,437 --> 01:01:05,405
Well, that's a secret.
667
01:01:06,506 --> 01:01:08,940
l'll tell you the whole story.
668
01:01:26,693 --> 01:01:28,024
Well....
669
01:01:28,729 --> 01:01:30,196
Come in!
670
01:01:31,398 --> 01:01:33,992
We've got some catching up to do...
671
01:01:34,067 --> 01:01:36,558
you and l.
672
01:01:47,848 --> 01:01:49,042
Let's begin.
673
01:02:39,232 --> 01:02:42,963
Take care. Bring him to us soon.
674
01:02:43,036 --> 01:02:44,867
See you, Professor.
675
01:02:44,938 --> 01:02:46,166
Goodbye.
676
01:02:53,046 --> 01:02:55,071
He really got to you.
677
01:02:56,450 --> 01:02:59,078
We often see folks like him.
678
01:03:02,022 --> 01:03:03,614
A touching tale!
679
01:04:10,123 --> 01:04:12,114
You truly play well.
680
01:04:17,130 --> 01:04:18,563
Liu Xiaochun...
681
01:04:20,267 --> 01:04:22,098
our lessons together...
682
01:04:23,103 --> 01:04:24,900
end here.
683
01:04:38,685 --> 01:04:43,418
The first time l saw you, l figured...
684
01:04:43,490 --> 01:04:45,287
you'd never make it.
685
01:04:47,093 --> 01:04:49,823
l saw your potential...
686
01:04:51,431 --> 01:04:53,331
but doubted...
687
01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:56,267
that destiny would smile upon...
688
01:04:56,503 --> 01:05:00,303
a country boy with no connections.
689
01:05:03,109 --> 01:05:05,134
Your father's right.
690
01:05:06,279 --> 01:05:08,474
l can teach you violin...
691
01:05:09,883 --> 01:05:12,181
but not lead you to acclaim.
692
01:05:17,924 --> 01:05:21,690
Study hard with Professor Yu.
693
01:05:22,262 --> 01:05:23,991
He's a good teacher.
694
01:05:32,272 --> 01:05:34,433
Return this money to your dad.
695
01:05:36,510 --> 01:05:38,774
l've written my phone number.
696
01:05:39,479 --> 01:05:41,344
Call me sometime.
697
01:05:55,462 --> 01:05:59,057
DONGDAN STRlNGED lNSTRUMENTS
698
01:06:08,508 --> 01:06:12,308
Well, well. You!
699
01:06:12,379 --> 01:06:14,370
lf it isn't my son.
700
01:06:14,447 --> 01:06:18,247
Little devil.
You put me in a real bind last time.
701
01:06:18,485 --> 01:06:19,782
ls Lili home?
702
01:06:24,157 --> 01:06:26,785
She's not here.
703
01:06:26,860 --> 01:06:30,455
Two guys seek Lili. l, however, have a key.
704
01:06:30,530 --> 01:06:32,464
Why are you here?
705
01:06:32,532 --> 01:06:34,090
And you?
706
01:06:40,173 --> 01:06:42,403
Give her that.
707
01:06:42,475 --> 01:06:45,706
Hey, kid!
708
01:07:03,263 --> 01:07:06,892
You're pleased with yourself. What gives?
709
01:07:06,967 --> 01:07:10,061
Take off my glasses and get out.
710
01:07:15,008 --> 01:07:16,373
Nice hairdo.
711
01:07:21,314 --> 01:07:23,214
Darling.
712
01:07:26,586 --> 01:07:28,679
Hands off.
713
01:07:41,501 --> 01:07:42,866
Open it.
714
01:07:57,751 --> 01:08:00,743
How did you know l tried it on?
715
01:08:01,521 --> 01:08:04,388
Top secret. l can't say.
716
01:08:04,457 --> 01:08:07,255
You followed me?
717
01:08:07,327 --> 01:08:08,817
Followed?
718
01:08:08,895 --> 01:08:10,556
Glasses off!
719
01:08:10,630 --> 01:08:12,689
Look me in the eye.
720
01:08:12,766 --> 01:08:13,824
Answer me!
721
01:08:13,900 --> 01:08:16,368
Nothing elaborate.
722
01:08:16,436 --> 01:08:18,870
You really followed me?
723
01:08:19,005 --> 01:08:20,233
Yes.
724
01:08:20,407 --> 01:08:24,036
All right, then.
725
01:08:24,110 --> 01:08:26,408
That woman at the cafe...
726
01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:29,710
you told her your dirty jokes?
Who was she?
727
01:08:30,083 --> 01:08:32,244
Out with it!
728
01:08:32,318 --> 01:08:34,411
My new policy...
729
01:08:34,487 --> 01:08:35,977
is to talk business...
730
01:08:36,056 --> 01:08:38,991
only with men.
731
01:08:39,559 --> 01:08:42,357
l was eyeing her shop.
732
01:08:43,029 --> 01:08:45,190
But l'm low on funds.
733
01:08:46,066 --> 01:08:48,091
Don't be angry.
734
01:08:57,343 --> 01:08:59,174
Help me put it on.
735
01:09:11,191 --> 01:09:12,783
Like it?
736
01:09:12,859 --> 01:09:14,292
Obviously.
737
01:09:17,263 --> 01:09:18,855
Sell it!
738
01:09:19,199 --> 01:09:21,429
lt stirs up bad memories.
739
01:09:21,701 --> 01:09:23,862
You just said you need money.
740
01:09:24,604 --> 01:09:26,128
How much?
741
01:09:26,406 --> 01:09:27,839
27,000.
742
01:09:27,907 --> 01:09:30,740
That's what it cost. Go return it.
743
01:09:34,914 --> 01:09:36,381
Professor Yu.
744
01:09:36,449 --> 01:09:38,178
l kept my shoes on last time.
745
01:09:38,251 --> 01:09:43,086
l felt foolish as l left.
746
01:09:45,024 --> 01:09:46,582
Come in.
747
01:09:48,428 --> 01:09:51,454
-So you're Liu Xiaochun?
-Yes.
748
01:09:51,531 --> 01:09:54,227
Play a piece you like.
749
01:09:54,300 --> 01:09:58,532
Xiaochun, play the Wieniawsky concerto
for the professor.
750
01:10:03,676 --> 01:10:05,337
Where's the violin?
751
01:10:06,012 --> 01:10:07,570
l sold it.
752
01:10:07,847 --> 01:10:09,246
Don't joke!
753
01:10:09,449 --> 01:10:10,780
lt's true.
754
01:10:12,452 --> 01:10:15,615
Where's the money?
755
01:10:16,623 --> 01:10:17,954
l spent it.
756
01:10:19,626 --> 01:10:21,617
What is this?
757
01:10:22,128 --> 01:10:24,961
Professor Yu.
758
01:10:25,064 --> 01:10:28,158
l don't know what's going on.
759
01:10:28,234 --> 01:10:30,099
Where is the violin?
760
01:10:32,739 --> 01:10:36,869
Professor, l wouldn't dare lie to you.
761
01:10:36,943 --> 01:10:40,276
Truly, he does play the violin.
762
01:10:40,346 --> 01:10:42,246
And rather well.
763
01:10:42,315 --> 01:10:46,081
Perhaps you could loan him one...
764
01:10:46,586 --> 01:10:48,076
and he'll show you.
765
01:10:51,324 --> 01:10:52,791
Sit down.
766
01:10:56,062 --> 01:10:57,859
Lin Yu!
767
01:10:57,931 --> 01:10:59,796
Bring us your violin.
768
01:11:05,538 --> 01:11:06,971
Play something.
769
01:11:07,841 --> 01:11:09,468
l don't know how.
770
01:11:15,648 --> 01:11:17,411
Oh, yes, you do.
771
01:11:18,384 --> 01:11:20,648
l can see by your hands.
772
01:11:20,820 --> 01:11:23,380
Lin Yu, loan him yours.
773
01:11:23,456 --> 01:11:25,185
l won't play here.
774
01:11:32,632 --> 01:11:35,362
Where did you sell it?
775
01:11:35,435 --> 01:11:38,529
Speak up! Where?
776
01:11:38,605 --> 01:11:41,301
Dongdan's shop.
777
01:11:41,808 --> 01:11:45,369
Who told you to sell it?
778
01:11:47,080 --> 01:11:50,641
See what you've done?
779
01:11:50,717 --> 01:11:53,015
Look here. You call this sheet music?
780
01:11:54,888 --> 01:11:57,755
You think l'm an idiot?
781
01:11:57,824 --> 01:12:02,090
lt's full of pictures of bad women!
782
01:12:04,731 --> 01:12:09,065
And this stuff. What have you glued in here?
783
01:12:14,440 --> 01:12:16,305
Who said to sell it?
784
01:12:16,376 --> 01:12:19,641
Sell everything! Why don't you?
785
01:12:24,350 --> 01:12:26,841
The first prize...
786
01:12:26,920 --> 01:12:30,321
and all the rest. You're unworthy.
787
01:12:30,390 --> 01:12:31,914
They said you were the best.
788
01:12:32,025 --> 01:12:34,892
All these prizes!
789
01:12:35,261 --> 01:12:36,990
Worthless boy.
790
01:12:37,363 --> 01:12:41,959
And here. You've put up a picture
of the bitch upstairs.
791
01:12:42,035 --> 01:12:45,232
What were you thinking?
792
01:13:33,186 --> 01:13:35,177
A violin, sir?
793
01:13:35,955 --> 01:13:38,446
lt's an ordinary one.
794
01:13:38,524 --> 01:13:42,392
And you want 50,000?
Somebody cheated you.
795
01:13:42,895 --> 01:13:44,988
We didn't pay that.
796
01:13:45,064 --> 01:13:48,192
We add a profit margin to earn a living.
797
01:13:57,477 --> 01:13:59,775
-Who's banging?
-Me.
798
01:13:59,846 --> 01:14:01,643
-Who?
-Something's happened.
799
01:14:01,714 --> 01:14:05,707
Why, it's Xiaochun's dad.
800
01:14:05,785 --> 01:14:07,047
Am l your type?
801
01:14:07,120 --> 01:14:09,486
Come out here!
802
01:14:09,555 --> 01:14:12,388
Why should l? Tell me.
803
01:14:15,528 --> 01:14:20,261
Come out here, then l'll tell you.
Something serious has happened.
804
01:14:20,900 --> 01:14:23,960
l wouldn't make this up.
805
01:14:24,037 --> 01:14:26,096
Stop shouting and listen.
806
01:14:26,172 --> 01:14:29,699
lf Chun bought the coat, l'll pay you back.
807
01:14:33,713 --> 01:14:37,809
Tell her about the coat.
808
01:14:38,951 --> 01:14:42,751
Tell your big sister everything. ls it true?
809
01:15:00,940 --> 01:15:04,273
The number you've dialed is out of service:
810
01:15:08,281 --> 01:15:12,877
lt wasn't easy to find him a teacher.
811
01:15:12,952 --> 01:15:14,476
Mr. Yu of the Conservatory.
812
01:15:14,554 --> 01:15:16,419
What an insult...
813
01:15:16,489 --> 01:15:19,117
to show up with an empty case.
814
01:15:19,192 --> 01:15:20,750
The way things are going...
815
01:15:20,827 --> 01:15:25,059
Xiaochun's future is shot.
816
01:15:25,131 --> 01:15:26,496
The violin. How much?
817
01:15:26,766 --> 01:15:28,063
50,000.
818
01:16:23,656 --> 01:16:25,123
Fanny?
819
01:16:25,491 --> 01:16:26,719
lt's me.
820
01:16:28,161 --> 01:16:29,992
How much cash you got?
821
01:16:31,831 --> 01:16:35,028
l'll fill you in later. A rotten break.
822
01:16:35,735 --> 01:16:37,703
Help me out, it's urgent.
823
01:16:37,870 --> 01:16:39,770
l'll repay you fast.
824
01:16:40,339 --> 01:16:42,034
10,000 yuan?
825
01:16:42,108 --> 01:16:45,544
l'll take it. Thanks.
826
01:16:45,778 --> 01:16:47,973
For tomorrow. l'll have to find the rest.
827
01:16:56,155 --> 01:16:59,420
Mr. Han? lt's Lili.
828
01:16:59,492 --> 01:17:03,087
Lili! You have some nerve phoning me:
829
01:17:03,696 --> 01:17:06,722
You found a guy richer than me?
830
01:17:06,799 --> 01:17:09,597
You stood me up: i waited three hours:
831
01:17:09,869 --> 01:17:13,032
if an employee is three minutes late:::
832
01:17:13,105 --> 01:17:14,595
i fire him on the spot:
833
01:17:14,907 --> 01:17:16,898
l'm not your employee.
834
01:17:16,976 --> 01:17:19,035
Don't take that tone with me!
835
01:17:19,111 --> 01:17:20,942
Your money is no excuse!
836
01:18:00,253 --> 01:18:03,416
l was 1 4 the first time l heard this.
837
01:18:04,624 --> 01:18:06,319
l was in high school.
838
01:18:07,059 --> 01:18:09,550
Phonographs were rare.
839
01:18:11,030 --> 01:18:14,056
l had a classmate whose father went abroad.
840
01:18:14,200 --> 01:18:19,069
He brought back Vivaldi's Four Seasons.
841
01:18:19,505 --> 01:18:21,871
We were young.
842
01:18:22,141 --> 01:18:24,905
We hid in order to listen.
843
01:18:24,977 --> 01:18:28,378
Outside it rained. We were entranced.
844
01:18:28,848 --> 01:18:31,214
lt was like....
845
01:18:31,284 --> 01:18:32,842
How shall l put it?
846
01:18:33,786 --> 01:18:35,686
A sort of secret.
847
01:18:36,656 --> 01:18:39,591
A pact between us and the music.
848
01:18:39,659 --> 01:18:43,891
Music was our first love.
849
01:18:44,897 --> 01:18:48,628
lt was a magnificent feeling.
850
01:19:06,719 --> 01:19:09,483
You, there!
851
01:19:19,465 --> 01:19:23,162
l can't talk, Fanny. l'll call you back.
852
01:19:25,705 --> 01:19:26,899
Out!
853
01:19:28,441 --> 01:19:29,999
Get out!
854
01:19:38,984 --> 01:19:41,680
Professor Yu!
855
01:19:42,388 --> 01:19:44,948
You again.
856
01:19:46,859 --> 01:19:50,260
l lost my temper earlier. l apologize.
857
01:19:51,097 --> 01:19:52,962
Sorry.
858
01:19:53,032 --> 01:19:55,330
l didn't come for your course...
859
01:19:55,401 --> 01:19:57,369
but for a child.
860
01:19:57,803 --> 01:20:00,294
l screwed up. l destroyed a genius.
861
01:20:00,506 --> 01:20:02,997
Only you can help me.
862
01:20:03,175 --> 01:20:06,269
A father and his son came to see you.
863
01:20:06,345 --> 01:20:08,108
-l'm not taking any students.
-Wait!
864
01:20:08,180 --> 01:20:10,478
lt's all my fault.
865
01:20:10,549 --> 01:20:13,575
He sold his violin to buy me a coat.
866
01:20:14,687 --> 01:20:17,986
Nobody's ever been that nice to me.
867
01:20:18,057 --> 01:20:20,491
And l wrecked his future.
868
01:20:29,865 --> 01:20:31,958
This way, Professor.
869
01:20:40,009 --> 01:20:42,807
Professor.
870
01:20:43,679 --> 01:20:47,171
Please come in.
871
01:20:47,583 --> 01:20:51,485
-Miss Lili brought me.
-Sit down.
872
01:20:52,187 --> 01:20:54,655
What you want doesn't count.
873
01:20:54,723 --> 01:20:57,783
Now play and absolve me of my crime.
874
01:20:57,860 --> 01:20:59,157
Here.
875
01:21:06,135 --> 01:21:08,933
lt seems l've ruined his future.
876
01:21:09,271 --> 01:21:11,034
Play!
877
01:21:11,640 --> 01:21:15,201
Miss Lili, truly...
878
01:21:15,945 --> 01:21:18,413
l thank you deeply.
879
01:21:19,114 --> 01:21:21,776
As soon as l saw you...
880
01:21:21,850 --> 01:21:24,318
l knew you were a good soul.
881
01:21:24,386 --> 01:21:25,944
Knock it off.
882
01:21:26,055 --> 01:21:29,047
l knew right away you were rotten.
883
01:21:29,124 --> 01:21:30,523
How true.
884
01:21:30,693 --> 01:21:32,888
We're even now.
885
01:21:33,062 --> 01:21:37,089
Whether Yu accepts him or not is up to fate.
886
01:21:37,166 --> 01:21:38,633
Agreed.
887
01:21:56,285 --> 01:21:58,753
Who's your teacher?
888
01:22:02,257 --> 01:22:03,690
You won't say?
889
01:22:05,194 --> 01:22:06,286
No matter.
890
01:22:08,330 --> 01:22:12,460
You play from the heart.
891
01:22:12,534 --> 01:22:14,001
That's good.
892
01:22:14,069 --> 01:22:16,037
Who did you sell your violin to?
893
01:22:16,505 --> 01:22:18,336
Dongdan's shop.
894
01:22:19,408 --> 01:22:22,809
You're gutsy. l'd not have dared.
895
01:22:22,878 --> 01:22:25,278
Character pleases me.
896
01:22:30,653 --> 01:22:32,245
You've got peach fuzz.
897
01:22:33,656 --> 01:22:35,453
Want to be my pupil?
898
01:23:13,796 --> 01:23:17,857
Every note is in place, but it's no use.
899
01:23:18,634 --> 01:23:21,728
There's no feeling when you play.
900
01:23:21,804 --> 01:23:25,706
Music devoid of feeling is like
an empty gun.
901
01:23:26,141 --> 01:23:29,736
Without bullets, how can you hit a target...
902
01:23:29,812 --> 01:23:31,803
or conquer a listener?
903
01:23:34,583 --> 01:23:38,178
Feelings can't be taught.
904
01:23:40,956 --> 01:23:44,084
Technique, yes.
905
01:23:45,194 --> 01:23:47,287
But feelings are up to you.
906
01:23:47,830 --> 01:23:49,491
Class dismissed.
907
01:23:50,532 --> 01:23:53,592
Come here, Liu Xiaochun.
908
01:23:53,669 --> 01:23:56,001
l'd like you to meet Lin Yu.
909
01:23:56,071 --> 01:23:58,665
This is Xiaochun. Shake hands.
910
01:23:58,741 --> 01:24:00,174
We've met.
911
01:24:03,278 --> 01:24:07,044
l'll soon pick a pupil
for the international contest.
912
01:24:07,149 --> 01:24:10,380
Your chances are equal, so study hard.
913
01:24:11,153 --> 01:24:13,087
But you already chose me.
914
01:24:15,090 --> 01:24:17,923
l'll decide at the last minute.
915
01:24:18,093 --> 01:24:19,287
Go!
916
01:24:23,332 --> 01:24:27,132
Liu Xiaochun, that's great!
917
01:24:27,202 --> 01:24:29,363
An international competition.
918
01:24:37,379 --> 01:24:39,870
So begins our first lesson.
919
01:24:42,151 --> 01:24:43,778
Seems dark?
920
01:24:45,554 --> 01:24:47,454
Get used to it.
921
01:24:49,424 --> 01:24:51,415
Learn to embrace it.
922
01:24:53,061 --> 01:24:55,222
The stage is blinding.
923
01:24:56,665 --> 01:24:59,691
When you play, the audience vanishes.
924
01:24:59,768 --> 01:25:02,168
The light is in your heart.
925
01:25:03,238 --> 01:25:05,536
Heaven, too, is dark.
926
01:25:05,841 --> 01:25:07,809
Only the angels glow.
927
01:25:08,443 --> 01:25:12,277
You, too, are an angel,
for you possess music.
928
01:25:12,347 --> 01:25:14,440
Your violin is a weapon.
929
01:25:14,516 --> 01:25:17,781
Your feelings are bullets.
You must conquer.
930
01:25:19,154 --> 01:25:21,088
You must conquer through music.
931
01:25:21,790 --> 01:25:23,724
l've chosen your piece.
932
01:25:25,127 --> 01:25:27,152
lt's perfect for you.
933
01:25:27,729 --> 01:25:29,356
lt's difficult.
934
01:25:29,965 --> 01:25:32,900
Tchaikovsky's Concerto in D Major.
935
01:25:36,071 --> 01:25:38,039
This is a precious violin.
936
01:25:40,075 --> 01:25:42,100
lt's over 200 years old.
937
01:25:43,478 --> 01:25:46,606
Starting today, it's in your care.
938
01:25:49,218 --> 01:25:50,378
Begin.
939
01:25:54,890 --> 01:25:56,118
That's better.
940
01:26:21,083 --> 01:26:25,179
The shotgun's become a sleek rifle.
941
01:26:26,655 --> 01:26:28,589
l barely recognize you.
942
01:26:29,858 --> 01:26:31,189
Professor Yu.
943
01:26:31,260 --> 01:26:33,455
Liu Cheng, it's you.
944
01:26:36,265 --> 01:26:38,460
l've come to get Chun.
945
01:26:40,736 --> 01:26:42,101
Liu Cheng...
946
01:26:44,773 --> 01:26:47,139
l've discussed it with Chun....
947
01:26:47,876 --> 01:26:50,276
-Some water.
-Thank you.
948
01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:52,572
To facilitate matters...
949
01:26:52,648 --> 01:26:54,707
starting today...
950
01:26:54,783 --> 01:26:58,241
Chun will live here with me.
951
01:27:00,656 --> 01:27:02,351
From the professor...
952
01:27:04,359 --> 01:27:06,384
to buy yourself an outfit.
953
01:27:24,680 --> 01:27:28,047
l have something to tell you.
954
01:27:29,851 --> 01:27:33,014
l went to Dongdan's shop.
955
01:27:35,223 --> 01:27:39,626
Somebody bought our violin.
956
01:27:43,799 --> 01:27:45,528
No big deal.
957
01:27:47,736 --> 01:27:50,068
lt had seen better days.
958
01:27:50,605 --> 01:27:52,163
A change was in order.
959
01:27:56,311 --> 01:27:58,302
Pay close attention to Mr. Yu.
960
01:28:19,534 --> 01:28:21,559
This is my sink.
961
01:28:21,636 --> 01:28:23,331
Yours is the other one.
962
01:28:27,709 --> 01:28:29,301
Peasant!
963
01:28:31,446 --> 01:28:34,711
30, 40, 50 thousand.
964
01:28:34,783 --> 01:28:36,842
lt's all there. Every last cent.
965
01:28:38,587 --> 01:28:40,418
They sold the violin.
966
01:28:40,489 --> 01:28:42,457
So l don't need the cash.
967
01:28:43,058 --> 01:28:46,755
Who's the bastard who bought it?
968
01:28:46,828 --> 01:28:48,193
Let's drop it!
969
01:28:56,104 --> 01:29:00,404
And you can knit.
You're something, Liu Cheng.
970
01:29:00,475 --> 01:29:03,467
lt was an old sweater of Xiaochun's.
971
01:29:03,545 --> 01:29:07,208
l undid it to knit him another.
972
01:29:08,216 --> 01:29:12,084
Chun is lucky to have a dad like you.
973
01:29:13,055 --> 01:29:14,215
Give me that.
974
01:29:20,829 --> 01:29:26,165
The professor wants
to keep Xiaochun with him.
975
01:29:26,234 --> 01:29:27,997
l should be pleased.
976
01:29:30,205 --> 01:29:32,537
So why don't l feel good about it?
977
01:29:32,607 --> 01:29:36,168
He's your flesh and blood,
not some kid you found.
978
01:29:36,244 --> 01:29:39,213
He's your son, no matter what.
979
01:29:41,550 --> 01:29:42,744
That's true.
980
01:30:46,348 --> 01:30:47,872
lt's me.
981
01:30:49,084 --> 01:30:51,109
l wanted to see you.
982
01:30:51,186 --> 01:30:52,653
Come in.
983
01:30:54,556 --> 01:30:59,459
Lili bought you this coat. Try it on.
984
01:31:11,740 --> 01:31:13,731
l wanted to see you...
985
01:31:13,808 --> 01:31:16,834
to talk to you about something.
986
01:31:18,747 --> 01:31:22,911
lt's good that you're living here with Mr. Yu.
987
01:31:24,486 --> 01:31:27,011
l'm thinking of heading home.
988
01:31:28,723 --> 01:31:33,285
l'll earn the cash to send you abroad
to compete.
989
01:31:35,497 --> 01:31:38,091
What do you say?
990
01:31:42,204 --> 01:31:44,434
Have some fruit juice.
991
01:31:44,506 --> 01:31:45,564
Thanks.
992
01:31:45,640 --> 01:31:47,232
Here.
993
01:31:48,210 --> 01:31:50,110
lt's a last-minute thing...
994
01:31:50,178 --> 01:31:52,976
as to who will get to compete.
995
01:31:53,048 --> 01:31:54,413
Bye!
996
01:32:24,045 --> 01:32:25,478
That's good.
997
01:32:26,881 --> 01:32:28,348
Why are you stopping?
998
01:32:32,554 --> 01:32:33,714
Professor...
999
01:32:35,690 --> 01:32:37,885
l don't want to compete.
1000
01:32:43,431 --> 01:32:45,695
My dad's leaving.
1001
01:32:45,767 --> 01:32:47,598
l want to go with him.
1002
01:32:58,213 --> 01:33:00,443
He won't agree.
1003
01:33:02,217 --> 01:33:06,051
He dreams of your success.
1004
01:33:08,857 --> 01:33:10,984
Stay and play well...
1005
01:33:12,193 --> 01:33:13,785
for his sake.
1006
01:33:17,666 --> 01:33:20,635
l think my playing is worse.
1007
01:33:24,506 --> 01:33:26,838
True enough.
1008
01:33:27,942 --> 01:33:30,843
You've developed Lin Yu's failing.
1009
01:33:30,912 --> 01:33:33,574
This is about expressing gratitude.
1010
01:33:34,616 --> 01:33:37,084
l see no gratefulness in you.
1011
01:33:43,525 --> 01:33:46,585
How to put you in touch with the sensation?
1012
01:33:51,766 --> 01:33:53,290
Let's say....
1013
01:33:53,968 --> 01:33:55,868
Take an example.
1014
01:33:58,106 --> 01:33:59,698
For example....
1015
01:34:01,443 --> 01:34:03,308
For example...
1016
01:34:05,447 --> 01:34:08,280
Liu Cheng is not your real father.
1017
01:34:08,350 --> 01:34:11,376
He found you in a train station...
1018
01:34:11,653 --> 01:34:15,214
with a violin beside you.
1019
01:34:15,290 --> 01:34:17,485
So Liu Cheng assumed...
1020
01:34:17,559 --> 01:34:20,392
whoever left you there...
1021
01:34:21,663 --> 01:34:24,530
wanted you to play the violin.
1022
01:34:26,534 --> 01:34:29,469
lf your parents abandoned you...
1023
01:34:29,537 --> 01:34:32,631
for a shameful reason...
1024
01:34:33,041 --> 01:34:35,168
Liu Cheng never blamed them.
1025
01:34:36,544 --> 01:34:42,141
He was very happy to have you.
1026
01:34:45,253 --> 01:34:48,051
He hopes you will succeed...
1027
01:34:48,123 --> 01:34:51,251
because that way...
1028
01:34:51,326 --> 01:34:54,124
upon learning the truth...
1029
01:34:54,195 --> 01:34:56,789
you'd overcome the humiliation.
1030
01:35:03,605 --> 01:35:06,665
That's how he raised you.
1031
01:35:06,741 --> 01:35:10,609
Don't you think you owe it to him to excel?
1032
01:35:10,678 --> 01:35:12,475
lt's a pack of lies!
1033
01:35:17,352 --> 01:35:18,751
Liu Xiaochun!
1034
01:36:06,367 --> 01:36:08,892
What's the matter?
1035
01:36:09,771 --> 01:36:13,468
Tell me what happened.
1036
01:36:14,042 --> 01:36:16,101
Don't cry.
1037
01:36:23,184 --> 01:36:25,618
l miss you.
1038
01:36:33,027 --> 01:36:34,585
What's wrong?
1039
01:36:34,762 --> 01:36:37,526
Did your teacher mistreat you?
1040
01:36:43,238 --> 01:36:47,436
l shouldn't have made you angry.
1041
01:36:48,209 --> 01:36:50,200
l shouldn't have sold the violin.
1042
01:36:50,278 --> 01:36:55,272
l didn't listen to you.
l was wrong to disobey.
1043
01:36:55,350 --> 01:36:58,148
l have my flaws, too. No matter.
1044
01:36:58,219 --> 01:36:59,811
l want to quit.
1045
01:37:02,090 --> 01:37:04,558
l want to go home with you.
1046
01:37:06,494 --> 01:37:07,859
My boy.
1047
01:37:11,299 --> 01:37:13,130
Professor.
1048
01:37:15,737 --> 01:37:19,002
Come in, Professor.
1049
01:37:24,145 --> 01:37:26,375
Let me talk to him.
1050
01:37:41,162 --> 01:37:43,153
l know you're angry at me.
1051
01:37:47,702 --> 01:37:52,298
l regret revealing the secret.
1052
01:37:52,507 --> 01:37:54,532
l so desire your success...
1053
01:37:55,276 --> 01:37:57,210
for your father's sake.
1054
01:38:01,883 --> 01:38:03,874
Put on your coat. Come back.
1055
01:38:15,029 --> 01:38:16,963
The choice is yours.
1056
01:40:19,087 --> 01:40:21,385
Liu Cheng, come in.
1057
01:40:22,623 --> 01:40:24,591
Why the big box?
1058
01:40:24,659 --> 01:40:29,119
lt's some of Chun's things
l'd like you to keep.
1059
01:40:35,470 --> 01:40:38,633
l head home tomorrow.
1060
01:40:42,443 --> 01:40:44,570
But there's the competition.
1061
01:40:45,279 --> 01:40:47,144
What's your hurry?
1062
01:40:51,252 --> 01:40:52,844
Sit down.
1063
01:41:01,929 --> 01:41:03,590
What's going on?
1064
01:41:04,398 --> 01:41:06,832
lf l attend, l'm afraid...
1065
01:41:06,901 --> 01:41:09,096
l'll distract Chun.
1066
01:41:09,904 --> 01:41:11,394
l have stage fright, too.
1067
01:41:13,007 --> 01:41:14,872
One more thing.
1068
01:41:14,942 --> 01:41:19,276
He'll need money to travel abroad.
1069
01:41:20,314 --> 01:41:22,908
l've got to go home and earn some.
1070
01:41:31,225 --> 01:41:34,786
The 50,000 yuan. l set them aside for you.
1071
01:41:34,862 --> 01:41:36,557
lt's enough for a while.
1072
01:41:36,964 --> 01:41:39,023
l can borrow more.
1073
01:41:40,434 --> 01:41:41,458
Take it.
1074
01:41:44,939 --> 01:41:46,964
For a young girl like you...
1075
01:41:47,909 --> 01:41:49,740
life can't be easy.
1076
01:41:51,245 --> 01:41:53,270
l can't accept.
1077
01:41:58,452 --> 01:42:02,149
lf you find the time...
1078
01:42:03,391 --> 01:42:05,518
please look in on Chun.
1079
01:42:08,663 --> 01:42:12,099
He's still just a boy.
1080
01:42:13,367 --> 01:42:15,198
And l suppose you're a man?
1081
01:42:15,269 --> 01:42:18,761
No need to get all weepy.
1082
01:42:32,520 --> 01:42:35,080
You didn't knit this.
1083
01:42:36,524 --> 01:42:38,321
Lili helped me.
1084
01:42:39,293 --> 01:42:42,126
Looks good on you.
1085
01:42:42,196 --> 01:42:43,424
lt does.
1086
01:42:47,134 --> 01:42:50,570
Help me pack?
1087
01:42:58,813 --> 01:43:01,646
Dad, are you taking that home again?
1088
01:43:03,317 --> 01:43:07,981
We brought it along to make gifts.
1089
01:43:09,223 --> 01:43:12,488
Who knew we'd find a teacher so fast?
1090
01:43:12,560 --> 01:43:16,894
l'll make a comforter and bring it to you.
1091
01:43:21,168 --> 01:43:23,227
Aren't we lucky!
1092
01:43:26,741 --> 01:43:31,735
Finding a teacher as good as Yu so quickly.
1093
01:43:34,115 --> 01:43:36,447
We made a great leap forward.
1094
01:43:37,952 --> 01:43:40,978
Big competition coming up.
1095
01:43:43,958 --> 01:43:48,588
We've been living here a while.
1096
01:43:48,663 --> 01:43:52,656
lt's hard to leave.
1097
01:43:54,702 --> 01:43:58,570
True.
At first we even slept at the public baths.
1098
01:43:59,707 --> 01:44:02,005
l had my red hat.
1099
01:44:02,076 --> 01:44:03,134
Then l lost it.
1100
01:44:03,210 --> 01:44:06,805
And your slogan to comfort me?
1101
01:44:07,114 --> 01:44:09,412
''Admit your mistake!''
1102
01:44:11,352 --> 01:44:14,219
Were we right to switch teachers?
1103
01:44:14,322 --> 01:44:15,380
Yes.
1104
01:44:15,856 --> 01:44:19,815
lt was hard to leave Professor Jiang...
1105
01:44:19,894 --> 01:44:21,885
and his cats.
1106
01:44:22,697 --> 01:44:24,221
Hush now.
1107
01:44:24,432 --> 01:44:25,729
l know.
1108
01:44:28,536 --> 01:44:29,628
Dad!
1109
01:44:30,504 --> 01:44:33,496
You must come hear me play.
1110
01:44:33,874 --> 01:44:35,569
You'll go right after.
1111
01:44:39,046 --> 01:44:40,411
Sonny...
1112
01:44:42,750 --> 01:44:45,241
l'm no good under pressure.
1113
01:44:46,988 --> 01:44:49,218
l might even faint.
1114
01:44:52,793 --> 01:44:56,923
Time to say goodbye. l'll be back soon.
1115
01:44:58,766 --> 01:44:59,960
Behave yourself.
1116
01:45:01,535 --> 01:45:02,729
On your way.
1117
01:45:03,704 --> 01:45:05,296
Away you go!
1118
01:45:25,393 --> 01:45:27,088
Aren't you gone yet?
1119
01:45:28,062 --> 01:45:29,654
Are you rejecting me?
1120
01:46:00,761 --> 01:46:03,753
Professor Jiang? lt's Liu Cheng.
1121
01:46:03,831 --> 01:46:06,231
Xiaochun's dad.
1122
01:46:06,300 --> 01:46:08,791
Hello. l wanted to tell you...
1123
01:46:09,070 --> 01:46:11,470
l'm heading home.
1124
01:46:11,572 --> 01:46:15,872
Chun isn't leaving.
He lives with Professor Yu.
1125
01:46:16,377 --> 01:46:20,143
We met many good people in Beijing.
We were lucky.
1126
01:46:20,214 --> 01:46:22,944
l wanted to thank you.
1127
01:46:23,017 --> 01:46:24,780
Many thanks.
1128
01:46:24,852 --> 01:46:27,650
l've made up my mind.
1129
01:46:30,524 --> 01:46:33,186
For tonight's competition...
1130
01:46:33,928 --> 01:46:35,759
l've chosen Xiaochun.
1131
01:46:40,267 --> 01:46:41,529
Give me your glass.
1132
01:46:52,079 --> 01:46:53,205
Lin Yu...
1133
01:46:53,981 --> 01:46:55,676
keep working hard.
1134
01:46:57,084 --> 01:46:59,109
There will be other opportunities.
1135
01:47:00,955 --> 01:47:03,116
A ticket to leave town.
1136
01:47:05,926 --> 01:47:08,793
lt's best that you take a train home...
1137
01:47:08,863 --> 01:47:10,694
after tonight's concert.
1138
01:47:11,799 --> 01:47:13,391
We'll serve ourselves.
1139
01:47:17,304 --> 01:47:21,741
Yesterday afternoon,
the rehearsal went well.
1140
01:47:21,809 --> 01:47:23,606
But you know Chun.
1141
01:47:25,246 --> 01:47:26,941
How to put it?
1142
01:47:27,281 --> 01:47:30,739
When you're around, l'm uneasy.
1143
01:47:31,018 --> 01:47:33,646
l understand.
1144
01:47:34,955 --> 01:47:38,118
l already bought my seat...
1145
01:47:38,192 --> 01:47:39,716
for tonight's train.
1146
01:47:39,793 --> 01:47:42,887
l'm not going to the concert.
1147
01:47:52,506 --> 01:47:53,803
Out of my way!
1148
01:47:56,010 --> 01:47:58,001
l'm sick of this!
1149
01:48:03,751 --> 01:48:04,945
Lin Yu.
1150
01:48:05,085 --> 01:48:09,021
l really thought you'd be the one
to play tonight.
1151
01:48:09,857 --> 01:48:11,552
Yeah, right.
1152
01:48:12,893 --> 01:48:15,123
Don't pretend to pity me.
1153
01:48:15,196 --> 01:48:17,164
l'm leaving, but first...
1154
01:48:17,898 --> 01:48:19,559
come see something.
1155
01:48:31,312 --> 01:48:32,540
Go on, open it.
1156
01:48:33,881 --> 01:48:35,246
Open it up!
1157
01:49:00,307 --> 01:49:02,241
Hard to believe, huh?
1158
01:49:02,309 --> 01:49:04,869
While you and your dad mourned its loss...
1159
01:49:04,945 --> 01:49:07,413
it was right here in a drawer.
1160
01:49:08,515 --> 01:49:10,710
Know why he bought it?
1161
01:49:10,784 --> 01:49:13,912
So long as this existed,
your heart eluded him.
1162
01:49:14,521 --> 01:49:18,252
lf you triumphed, he'd give it back to you...
1163
01:49:18,325 --> 01:49:21,089
making a fuss over all the trouble
he'd gone to.
1164
01:49:21,362 --> 01:49:23,557
But if you didn't turn into a prize pupil...
1165
01:49:23,631 --> 01:49:26,794
this would be gone for good.
1166
01:49:28,669 --> 01:49:30,534
My playing lacks feeling.
1167
01:49:30,604 --> 01:49:32,936
Has he shown me feeling?
1168
01:49:33,007 --> 01:49:35,066
He says it can't be given.
1169
01:49:35,142 --> 01:49:37,667
Because he has none to give.
1170
01:49:44,585 --> 01:49:45,984
Liu Xiaochun.
1171
01:49:47,821 --> 01:49:50,381
l thought l didn't care.
1172
01:49:51,025 --> 01:49:54,859
But when he said l wouldn't play tonight...
1173
01:49:55,496 --> 01:49:59,227
l realized just how much l truly love music.
1174
01:50:03,837 --> 01:50:05,600
l know.
1175
01:50:32,533 --> 01:50:33,830
Xiaochun!
1176
01:51:09,336 --> 01:51:10,394
Dad!
1177
01:52:08,796 --> 01:52:09,888
Chun!
1178
01:52:57,878 --> 01:53:00,176
Whose baby is this?
1179
01:53:01,415 --> 01:53:03,975
Whose baby is this?
1180
01:53:26,540 --> 01:53:28,872
Whose baby is this?
1181
01:53:32,312 --> 01:53:34,576
